Love South Africa. We had such a great time in the country, in large part thanks to spending lots of time hanging out with locals. Always more fun and kinda makes it seem like you live there, as opposed to just quickly passing through. Our time was broken up between Cape Town, Hluhluwe (Photo Safari) […]

Back in May, Danielle & I purchased a six day, six night South African photo safari during a fundraiser for the California Labrador, Retrievers & More Rescue organization. The safari was at Zulu Nyala Game Lodge located just outside Hluhluwe, South Africa (the pronunciation of this took me a good two weeks) which is located […]

There aren’t many places that you can say, “We got robbed four times in eight days and I had a helluva week! And I can’t wait to go back!” But that’s exactly how I feel about Cape Town, South Africa. I love, love, LOVED it! We got extremely lucky with intros from friends Jeremie Brilliant […]

We spent Thursday exploring the Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek wine regions of Cape Town. We visited four wineries and tasted lots of delicious wines. Our first stop was to the Villiera Winery. Our second stop (and perhaps the best stop of the day) was to Fairview Wine and Cheese where we sampled more wine […]

Yesterday we rented a car and drove down to Cape Point (where some people say the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet. Except they’re wrong and the two actually meet a little further east at Cape Agulhas, the Southern most tip of the African continent) and the Cape of Good Hope (the South Western most point […]

Our plans for Cape Town always included hiking Table Mountain, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. On a Tuesday morning, bright and early, those plans came to fruition. The day after the Lady Gaga concert. Where we figured we’d enjoy a beer or two at the show and we’d be back at the […]

Jon, our new Cape Town friends hooked us and our hostel friend, Joe, up with tickets to the Lady Gaga concert down at Cape Town Stadium (one of the 2010 World Cup venues). It was a really fun concert, as well as being our first mainstream concert to attend since being on the road! […]

Tanzania is rad! The people are friendly, the food is excellent and the scenery is magnificent! We spent the first part of our time in the Serengeti and the second half chilling on the beach and enjoying the beautiful white sand and blue waters of Zanzibar. Things of note: If you are an American […]

Zanzibar is heavenly. I’m becoming spoiled in regards to visiting beautiful beaches. Beautiful white beaches, turquoise waters and relatively few people made for an extremely relaxing seven days. We essentially ended up taking a ‘vacation’ from our ‘vacation’ and decided to camp out for seven days at Kendwa Rocks. We were pretty much beach bums for […]

When we were in the RTW planning phase, we did a bunch of research on vaccines needed for the countries we were visiting. Since Malaria presented some risk in a few of the countries we were visiting, we began researching options of what to take. What I found was, there are zero good medicines for […]
